Hi All,

the messages posted on this topic, and the symptoms were the same.

firstly we upgraded from version 8.1.2 (8.1 [i don't know the build
number] JDBC3 Driver) to 8.2.4 (initially we used the same driver and we
upgraded to the 8.2-507 JDBC3 driver) and we noticed this problem that
the queries that were using outer joins were slow. we find out that in
8.2.4 there was a problem with the optimization and the developers
advise to use the 8.2.5 ... so we upgraded the database to 8.2.5.
i must notice that before the database was running on a dual CPU server
with 2GB of memory ... the upgraded database was installed on a 4 CPU
system with 6 GB of memory ... so we expected some speed improvements
but we were disappointed.

we do not tried this because we desperately needed the case sensitive
and case insensitive improvements of the LIKE and ILIKE operators on the
Unicode character set (UTF8-hu).

the performance before were arount 1-2 minutes ... and after the upgrade
it was about 30-40 minutes and more ... but because our application is
running throw the internet using the CORBA technology in most of the
cases the database throws an org.postgresql.util.PSQLException(: An I/O
error occured while sending to the backend.) exception.
